Borecore Manifesto
The tenants of boring fancy dress:
1. āthe fit must fitā The most important borecore rule. Itās not easy to find clothes that fit, and fashion manufacturers arenāt always on your side. Learn to sew, find a tailor, investigate made to measure clothing. Get it right!
2. āfollow the dress code so perfectly it breaksā Borecore exists at the intersection of every dress code, white shoes after labor day? you would never. If your fit makes sticklers feel you are doing something wrong ābut they page desperately through their rulebook and canāt say exactly *what* you win.
3. āBe ready to time travelā
4. ālook every ageā toddler to grandma
5. āyou could be from any city in the worldā
5. āPrep without the brattyness; AcademĆ© without the victorian fussiness; camp without the cynicism; 50s revival without the US suburbs ā
